Dear Parents and/or Guardians,
Welcome to British International Junior School.
I am very proud of all that we do here at BIJS. Our school has a reputation for developing the ‘whole child’ and our mission at BIJS is pure and simple: For a greater tomorrow….
At BIJS, the children and their families are our priority. We work hard to nurture the growth of every pupil developing academically, physically, socially, culturally, spiritually and we ensure that they are learning, happy and well cared for.
Our core mission is to lay the foundation for quality learning that enables pupils to succeed in the ever-changing global context. We pursue the highest academic standards to ensure all our children achieve their full potential. Through our exciting and motivating curriculum, our children soon develop a love of learning and want to achieve their very best. We are part of a ‘family’ with a strong ethos of care and support for one another. Children at our school are happy and look after one another. Good manners are strongly promoted.
Our vision, mission and values, help to ensure our children blossom into confident, polite, well rounded, globally minded young people. Who, by the time they move on at the end of their primary years, are proud of their achievements, ready for the next phase of their lives and feel good about themselves. A huge influence on our success is the relentless high standards in all that we do. We have a highly motivated, enthusiastic team of staff who always put the children first and pride ourselves on going the extra mile.
We are passionate about giving our children the very best of everything. We believe our children deserve the absolute best through high expectations, equality, and access for all, helping to create a deeply supportive learning community.
Teamwork is a strong theme that runs throughout our school. Effective primary education is a partnership between children, staff, and parents. We look forward to working with you to ensure your child is valued as an individual and has a safe, happy, and successful time with us. We are committed to all aspects of education and development, encouraging families to work in partnership with us to realise our aim of successfully helping every child to achieve their full potential and live remarkable lives.
Our school is a very busy place with many enriching events for the children and their families. We look forward to working together in our warm and welcoming school to ensure that we can achieve the best outcomes for all children. We continually evaluate what we do to give the children the very best education. We know the importance that parents/carers play in their child’s education and so fully welcome your involvement in your child’s education and in the life of our school.
Warm regards,
Mrs. Melisha Trotman
